Burg Bergerhausen, Medieval castle in Kerpen, Germany

The three-wing castle structure features an octagonal stair tower with an onion dome and connects to a western wing through a loggia.

Initially documented in 1291 as the residence of the Knights of Bergerhausen, the castle passed to Hermann von dem Bongart in 1334 after the last male heir.

The castle chapel, built in 1860 and dedicated to the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary, contains the family crypt of former castle owners.

The castle functions as an event venue for weddings and corporate celebrations, with spaces available for booking throughout the main building complex.

The castle houses a collection of restored Lanz-Buldog tractors and agricultural machinery, gathered by the Stollenwerk brothers over several decades.
